Windows Vista

[atomic tofu]

I just have to say...testing the new pre-rc1...if you buy a new powerful pc and don't use vista...you're wasting it. Besides of course dx10 only comes with vista

oh man, it's so sweet...sure it's eye candy but that's just a part of it

I hope they give testers a 50% discount or something, or free...I'll get the ultimate edition

I rather them spend 5 years on making an OS functional then "eye candy" if i want eye candy thats what a 5'10 blonde is for.

i mean do you really need your desktop is 3D lol?

 

[atomic tofu]

yes! eye candy always stands out first and foremost of course...that's why we have to test it. To me they done a lot of improvements...so far

so how do you become a tester???

 

[atomic tofu]

one of the easiest ways of course, depending on how you look at it, is signing up for the small windows of "open beta" testing...and do a good record they tend to come back to you again

I've done these for something like 15 years...so my name is reg'd pretty well with them. And some games! ;p

 

[lancec2c30]

well I just wanted to try out vista beta, BUt I thought you could do it for free, as long as if the os screwed up your computer they werent liable or something.

I just want to try out vista.

i think the'll do another open beta soon, just make sure you get it before servers get hammered...or they close em

You don't have to download it, you can order DVD's for like $6.
